When buffer and normalize are modified, when does it take effect? If modifications are not applied atomically, it's possible to get spikes (or dropouts) depending on the order of setting and the previous state.

Further, setting normalize to true is defined using the phrasing "when the buffer atttribute is set", which implies that the order of setting the attributes matters. However, no such order-dependence exists when setting normalize to false.
If an order-dependence is intended, it ought to be changed to either commit atomically after the script thread has finished, or we should have a setter taking both a buffer and a normalize flag.
